ABOUT ME

Quiet but friendly. Enjoys all kinds of new experiences and loves meeting people from all over the world. Generous, caring. Adventurous and slightly impulsive. Loves old, fast cars; nature and hiking; good food. A great cook when I have the time.
Somewhat shy when in a big group, I tend to open up when with just a few people.

Interests

Fixing my car, hiking when the weather's good, looking after my child, cooking, brewing my own beer. I used to travel lots, but can't really afford it much these days so hoping to have people come and stay with us instead!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spending the millenium New Year's Eve on a Polish mountain, waist deep in snow, with a group of 30 friends, overlooking the fireworks in 3 nearby towns.
Having my first child!
Snorkelling in Siquijor, Philippines, then seeing an amazing sunset afterwards and the beach covered with tens of thousands of tiny crabs.
